Nintendo Switch Online users, start your engines! It's time for Mario Kart 8: Deluxe, unbanned edition. Join us this Saturday for a tournament against your fellow kart-racing tempers, in 150CC format. Depending on how many players we get, we'll be doing groups of 6 races of 12 players, taking the top 4 racers until we have a group of finalists in a tournament-deciding 12 race match. The best among us will claim a $30 gift card as a grand prize!

Join by adding this friendcode! SW-6087-5874-2306

The tournament begins at 2pm CDT. That's 8pm British Summer Time, 12pm PDT, 3pm EDT, 5am Australian Central Time, and 7pm Central European Time. For those outside of those regions, please use Google to find out what time it starts in your location. If your Nintendo Switch profile name is different from your GBAtemp username, make sure to specify who you are, below, so we can keep track of everyone!

Is it a tournament, or do we connect to Chary in 'friends?' (Never done this, usually just the random worldwide)

 

[Medveitsi]

I added you as friend so how do i join the room? Im confused

 

[nightweb]

was just looking for a way to see how badly I really play, I added the friend code and my name is Nightweb, hope to join you guys

 

[Chary]

You'll need to go to online in MK8, and connect via friends. The room is now open!

I was thinking about joining but I probably won't be able to because
1. There's already too many people.
2. Like I said back on page 1 I usually go to sleep at 8pm.
3. Animal Crossing: New Horizons.

But good luck to everyone. Again.

We have over 12 people entering, so the brackets will be on a first-come first-serve basis. Once the room fills up to 12, we'll start the first set of races. After that concludes, I'll close the room and allow in a fresh set of players.

 

[gudenau]

Yay I'm bad at this.

 

[Marco_Buns]

Too many connected. Guess I'll wait for a bit.

 

[Dkquisha]

All we can do is wait for out inevitable defeat

Bottom 4 advance right?

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

I forgot how unresponsive this game is. Several times I have hit the left shoulder button to use an item and had it not come out, drifts randomly stop even though I am holding the right shoulder and tricks don't come out a lot too.

[nightweb]

still spectating, that right?

 

[MeAndHax]

I cannot join too many people

 

[nightweb]

Communication error

 

[banjo2]

6th place :/
I think I'd have made it if I hadn't been TS'ed twice in GBA RR, but gg's

 

[Chary]

Congrats to the top 4! Stick around, and we'll see who you'll face off against in the finals! Bladerunnr, sailornic, hanafuda, and chico!

Time for the next group of people to join!

Looks like my Mario Karting could use some improvement, but that was fun nonetheless. Unfortunately, I have things I need to do. Thanks everyone!
